Roebling Street Demolition Porn, Stop Work Order Included

We stopped by the demolition site at N. 9 and Roebling (239-261 N. 9 Street) yesterday to see if there was still a hole in the fence allowing free access to the nastiness within and found two things: (A). It had been plugged and (B). the site had been hit with a Stop Work Order for "hazardous conditions" on Friday. However, (C.) 261 N. 9 Street, which is part of the same development, was featuring an open fence and construction equipment. (The latter is a former Construction Site Du Jour, but last time we featured it, there was no heavy equipment on site.) The end result of all this (whether people are injured or not) will be a five-story Karl Fischer building with 91 apartments.
